ABSTRACT:
An information processing apparatus having a plurality of systems including software for starting and activating the systems, in which, when one system is active, other systems do not operate, includes a first storage unit that stores the plurality of systems, a second storage unit that stores a system different from the plurality of systems, and a controller. When a fault is detected in one of the systems stored in the first storage unit, the controller inactivates the systems stored in the first storage unit and starts the system stored in the second storage unit. The system stored in the second storage unit diagnoses the detected fault. When the fault is caused by the software as a result of the diagnosis, another system stored in the first storage unit is started. When the fault is caused by hardware, the system stored in the second storage unit is kept active.
